Raventale is a one-man project by Astaroth. The music can be described as apocalyptic doom/black metal that has a strong focus on a keyboard-based atmosphere. The project avoids comparison to most depressive doom/black bands (e.g. the Katatonia vein) by drawing most of the influences from black metal. For that reason, Deinonychus and Mourning Dawn are likely the bands who lie closest to Raventale in comparison.

Astaroth is supplemented by a full line-up of musicians for the band's live performances.
